Hello Everyone, I am a new person on this forum, have been reading some of the posts and am finding tons of very valuable information here.
I have just bought a 1980 Trojan F 25 here in Toronto, can't wait to get it into the water next spring.

I will be asking probably tons of questions, some may seem mundane, but please keep in mind that this is my very first boat ever. So any help will be much appreciated.

The boat was recently pulled from the water, winterized and put up for sale as the owner has bought a motor home and decided to travel on dry land. He has kept it in great shape.

I am very much looking forward to a great time relaxing and fishing on Lake Ontario with it.

Looks to be in really good condition. I'm sure you'll have many memorable hours aboard her.

Naming your boat is always fun and should provide you with hours of entertaining thought until you arrive at that perfect moniker for YOUR boat.

Good luck with that and let us know what you decide on.

Welcome to the forum, fellow 1980 F25 owner. You have a good looking boat there.
I have been working on ours since we bought it in June 09. Already got plans for what to do when warm weather hits again, both inside and out.

Thank you Larry

I looked at your photobucket, beautiful !!!
One thing I really like about yours is the hardtop. I think if I could or can, I would like to replace the Bimini with a hardtop like yours, looks much more sleeker.
Although the Sunbrella is brand new on the one I bought
Pics I put up are from the website that was selling it, I will have more later when I go to it next time with my own camera. Just needed to get some up as requested above for now.

Welcome to the forum. That's a great looking F-25 you have there. Don't be shy asking any question you may have. There are no stupid questions here, just a bunch of stupid, crazy folks in love with their Trojans!
